Source_Information:
Type_of_Source_Media: existing GAP vegetation data
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Existing GAP vegetation coverages for Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming were clipped to the outline of our AOC.
Process_Date: 1 March 2001
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Vegetation codes for individual coverages were then reclassified to a common code for each vegetation type for the AOC coverage. This was done by comparing vegetation types within each coverage and assigning the common code for similar vegetation types.
